A general-purpose info-stealing malware is poised to make a splash in cybercrime circles, thanks to its market niche: It’s positioned as an ideal tool for low-skilled adversaries looking to get some skin in the game without having a lot of expertise.
According to the Fidelis Threat Research Team (TRT), the Arcane Stealer V malware is an inexpensive .NET package – it goes for just $9 on the Dark Web.

Aside from the attractive price tag, Arcane Stealer V also woos those on the lower rung of the cybercrime sophistication ladder with a series of helpful GUI dashboards, and a support line available via the Telegram secure messaging service. The TRT team in a Thursday analysis saw that it also comes with various reports, such as statistics to showcase the potential amount of cash a user can “earn” with the malware within their specific geographic locations.

“Due to the lack of traversal, propagation, or destructive capabilities at the time of analysis, it is assessed with moderate confidence that this malware may not become popular with high-value and highly capable actors,” TRT researchers said.
